Looks like a nicer interface, but functionality-wise from a quick 5 min look through there doesn't look anything new. I like the refreshed look, so definitely a +1 from me.
I'd really like to see creep mode, as I dislike auto-hold. As well as a better "cabin keeper" for HVAC. I know there is pet mode but it doesn't seem to let me set a temp below 68 which I'd like to.
We have a Model 3 and a R1S and they're different animals behind the wheel. I still enjoy driving the Model 3, in particular I like the heavier steering and feeling more glued to the ground, and creep mode. I also find the sound system better on the Model 3. The biggest complaint is the lack...
Got my windows tinted (Xpel XR Black) last week and to my surprise the tint does _not_ go below the interior door gasket, see the picture below. To other that have gotten their R1's tinted, does your window tint on the windows that roll down extend below the interior window seal?
Either way...
@caiudalmau A bit off topic, but as someone who has shared that they've gotten XPEL tint I had a question about your install. I just got XPEL XR Black on my R1S, and to my surprise the tint does _not_ go below the interior door gasket, see the picture below. My tint person has already said he...
@EV Sportline Is there an option with flush screws on the top running board surface instead of the ones that stick up? I really liked the clean look of the original prototypes you shared, but seems that got adjusted when things went to full production. Hoping this can be an option. Thanks!
Very excited for this, I have a very similar one on our Model 3 and looking to do that again on our R1S. I see a preorder for the front roof panel shade, are there plans for a shade on the rear glass panel?
My 8-step just opened up yesterday and lists a 91XX VIN! Very excited!! It's a R1S adventure package, with black mountain interior in case that's useful for folks
Snow mode will be nice. I've been waiting since 2018 for my Model 3 to get that, and I'm still waiting... Glad to see Rivian listening to customer requests!
Was H1 2023, now Apr-Jun 2023. Nov 2020 reservation, Black Mountain interior, never changed my configuration.
All in all this seems like "good" news to me. First delivery estimate that didn't move backwards. Progress.
This seems like a feature not a bug in the eyes of Manchin. He was generally resistive to EV incentives at all. So it is unsurprising to me that the incentives "remain" but are so hard to achieve, particularly in the short term that they effectively disappear.
Looks more likely that the R1S will also qualify for the Mass MOR-EV Trucks program. With the R1S at the Venice Hub someone snagged a pick of the GVWR in the doorjamb and it remains consistent at 8532 lbs which is above the necessary threshold...
The first R1S showed up at the Venice Hub, and someone grabbed a pick of the GVWR sticker and it also lists the same 8532 lbs. This is looking quite promising that the R1S may qualify as well!!
Originally saw the video I snapped this from here -...
Yea I saw an email from Rivian, got excited it would finally be my updated R1S delivery estimate, which will almost certainly be a delay. But nope just this fluff. Sigh
Two different R1T sightings this week by friends and family, but I've still yet to seem one myself! First up is a nice Rivian Blue R1T at the Mansfield Municipal Airport. The second is a R1T at Craft Detailing in Dedham where my buddy in the Blue GMC was getting paint protection applied...
